The Department of Administrative Services, Office of Information Technology, Project Success Center (PSC) (the Enterprise Project Management Office) is seeking a project manager to assist in the expansion of the State of Ohio’s Private Cloud as part of the State’s IT Optimization initiative. The Private Cloud expansion involves the consolidation, standardization, and integration of highly distributed Agency data centers into centrally managed compute, storage, and network environments.
The candidate will initially be assigned two projects:
Project 1: Manage a project to assume centralized technical responsibilities for an Agency’s remote server network (approx. 200 servers), with Windows and Linux operating systems.

Project 2: Manage a project to migrate and/or re-platform an Agency’s data center (servers, storage, and network) into the State of Ohio’s Private Cloud services.
The candidate needs to be a strong leader. The candidate will be responsible for overall migration planning of key IT infrastructure, developing waves of migrations, communicating status of migration plans, resource planning, and meeting Program objectives. They will work with Agency application owners and infrastructure managers for pre-migration and migration activities (server builds, network routing and firewall configurations, storage and backup configuration, testing, cutover strategy, resource planning, and project documentation).
